911 need help. Fuel pump won't prime

[agallant]

I tried posting this in the 911 section but it would not let me. If a moderator can move this it would be greatley appreaciated.

I have a 2000 XLT. I was driving today got out of my car for about a half an hour and when I got back the car would not start. I checked the fuel rail “there is a valve on it” a bit of fuel spit out but nothing more. I could not here the fuel pump prime. I reset the cut off switch under the dash, changed the relays and checked all of the fuses and still noting. Any one have any ideas?

I realize your is a 2000, but here is a link that might provide some places to start with the diagnosis from my 1991 experiences...

If you have a multimeter, I would check and see if you have voltage at the tank connections going to the fuel pump...
